Title: Hopper Mountain National Wildlife Refuge - Boundaries

Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data

Online_Linkage: <http://www.fws.gov/data/r8gis/boundary/>

Description:

Abstract:

This data set depicts boundary information for Hopper Mountain National Wildlife Refuge in Ventura County, California. National Wildlife Refuges are federal lands managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). The primary source for boundary information is the USFWS Realty and Refuge Planning programs (land status maps, planning documents, legal surveys).

Purpose:

The intended application of the data is to serve as a spatial reference of refuge boundaries for other data layers in GIS and mapping applications. It is specifically not intended to be used as a land survey or representation of land for conveyance or tax purposes. It is expected that data will be replaced as better survey information is collected.

Attribute_Definition_Source: USFWS Realty Division

Attribute_Domain_Values:

Codeset_Domain:

Codeset_Name: USFWS defined character codes

Codeset_Source:

Character code definitions: o = owned (land currently owned by USFWS); i = inholding (area within the legislative boundary available for acquisition but not owned by USFWS); e = easement (land where easement or lease shares jurisdiction, could contain double codes describing type of easement); s = secondary (USFWS is secondary to other federal agencies); x = exclusion (an area internal to a closed legislative polygon that is excluded from acquisition); u = uncertain (status of parcel is uncertain because it is unknown, disputed, or requires additional research in Realty); RR = railroad; X = waterfowl management rights; W = water; T = telephone; R = road; P = pipeline; C = conservation easement; E = electric power transmission lines; ET = electric and telephone line combination; M = miscellaneous; A = agricultural; D = ditch, canal, or culvert. Single character code definitions are obvious, however, an example of a double character code would be 'eX' which describes a wetland easement. Another such example would be 'eRR' which describes a railroad easement.
